    Super excited - Getting another rocket!

    Love your license plate! If I didn’t just make a deal on the 2015 on there I’d have bought yours. Where was it 24 hours ago!

    Super excited - Getting another rocket!

    Don’t be afraid of eBay. Or to have someone in a different city check one out for you. The rocket is worth it!

    Exhaust Question???

    One last detail for installation guidance for anyone that searches on this thread: A little trick from racing: get some muffler paste. put that on some tin foil. put that under the clamp before you use the heat wrap. it will get you a perfect seal.

    Super excited - Getting another rocket!

    In all honesty, the anticipation of the second one is huge. I’ve been shopping for months. Finally caving. Now to pick out more mods!

    Super excited - Getting another rocket!

    Had a 2011. Loved it. Sold it because it was an offer i couldn't refuse. Now i've made a deal on a 2015 with less than 3k miles. I CANNOT WAIT to be back in the saddle of a rocket! Admittedly, i modded the 2011 a ton. Going to try to resist the urge to do that to this one. Try is the...

    This is the loops that attach to a windshield or a flyscreen.

    I have an extra front end fixing kit

    bought it from bike bandit but turns out my bike already had it. Anyway, I tried to return it and shipped it back in the original triumph box. Apparently that isn't cool. They said they wouldn't take it back. So I have a new one that I don't need. Will sell it cheap if you needed one! JD

    Installed Pazzo levers

    150 off of eBay, new. They didn't take but 10 minutes to install. I definitely like the feel and the look.

    Is there a market for used stock parts?

    I suppose that is better than nothing. When I used to race cars I had bins and bins of used parts and one day I had a friend come get the stuff... he brought an F350 and still had to put stuff inside the cabin. I made him give me the plastic crates back... there were lots of them.

    Is there a market for used stock parts?

    In general, I save stock parts that I take off of my 'projects' but then I throw them out years later. In an effort to be different, should I bother saving my stock exhaust or stock headlights or stock shocks? I could throw the stuff up on eBay but I don't know if anyone buys that stuff. I...

    Changing clutch and brake levers - recommendations?

    I did. Made them closer. Still not close enough. Don't have this issue on my America or my T120. Maybe there is an adjustment I need to make.

    Changing clutch and brake levers - recommendations?

    While I do have large hands (XXL glove size) I find there to be a little too much stretching/reach for the brake and clutch levers. Any recommendations on changing these to something with a shorter throw? I haven't ever changed these on any of my other bikes so this is new to me. Thoughts...

    Installed Dain exhaust - wow!

    Received my Dain exhaust today and spent a whole 30 minutes installing it. What an awesome setup! Everything fit perfect and it sounds great! I feel like I'm relearning how to ride it now since it is so powerful. Serious bump in HP. Wow wow wow! I highly recommend it. Dain's customer...

    front fork seals

    Can the springs be changed with the forks still on? It looks like one could but i can't tell for sure. Is there an easy way to do this?
